Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 131 Dragon Binding Rope
"Oh? Are you willing to take us to find the treasure of the Water Palace?"

Yuan Qinghuan let out a sigh, as if smiling, "Aren't you from the Water Palace? Why are you leading us to do this? You don't have any perseverance at all?"

"grown ups!"

Xia Qi said bitterly, "Sir, I was originally relying on the Dragon Palace and the Water Palace. When my father got old, I would be able to take over and get an official position. But the Dragon Goddess defected and destroyed the Water Palace. I don't know how many people died. The surviving shrimp soldiers and crab generals have all become wanted demons in the Great Zhou Dynasty. What else can I do? I have lost my public food and am wanted. Xiao Xia hates Hui Chunjiang's Dragon Palace and the Water Palace. Why am I still protecting her!"

"How about this, you and I sign a contract and you work for me, how about that?"

Jiang Yue looked at Xia Qi.

"Sir, this."

Xia Qi hesitated, but when he saw that the tip of the shiny three-pointed, double-edged sword was filled with more energy and blood, his hesitation quickly disappeared.

Shrimp Seven exposed his belly from the water, opened his claws, and said hurriedly, "Sir, I am willing to serve you at my utmost."

"good."

Jiang Yue smiled slightly.

"Sir, you are the official who patrols the mountains. Can you find me a position in the future? It's very comfortable to eat the food of the court."

Xia Qi's words were full of desire for the system.

Jiang Yue smiled secretly in his heart, thinking that Xia Qi was still a guy who was devoted to the "public", but he just wanted to organize that public.

"I can't say for sure about finding you an official position, but if you join my army, no one will be wanted and hunting you down."

Jiang Yue smiled.

"That's fine too, of course!"

Xia Qi flattered him, "You are so powerful and brave, and you are so skilled in using the sword and the gun. You will be promoted step by step in the future. I will follow you."

It was hard to imagine that one could see such flattery on the head of a shrimp. It looked exactly like a villain, and Yuan Qinghuan frowned when he saw it.

"Let your guard down."

Jiang Yue bit his fingertips and wrote a deed.

Xia Qi was very afraid of death and very honest. He really let down his guard, opened his belly, and let the contract written by Jiang Yue fall on his body.

The contract was successfully concluded.

Xia Qi's consciousness was in a trance for a moment, and he only saw a heroic young man in a yellow robe catching a dragon and killing a snake. He was extremely powerful, and with a wave of the three-pointed, two-edged sword in his hand, the rivers and seas turned upside down. The rivers and seas flowed into the sea. His divine power was unparalleled, and the momentum of the lord of all waters in the world was overwhelming, making Xia Qi almost kneel down and scream.

Coming back to his senses, Xia Qi's body trembled slightly, his eyes fell on the three-pointed, double-edged sword in Jiang Yue's hand, and he suddenly realized something.

My master has a divine inheritance!

Or maybe, the reincarnation of a god? !

The contract was completely finalized, and Xia Qi was convinced and bowed his head, saying, "My Lord, I am willing to serve you like a dog and a horse."

At the same time, a panel prompt appeared in Jiang Yue's eyes.

[Contract successful]

【Time + 200 years】

【Time: 1240 years】

The contract with Xia Qi was successful, and Jiang Yue gained two hundred years of time. He remembered that when he made the contract with White Dragon Horse, he gained one hundred years of time. This showed that Xia Qi's strength was much stronger than the Third Realm White Dragon Horse. No wonder he could withstand ten moves from Jiang Yue.

[Pet: Shrimp Seven]

[Bloodline: Redwater Shrimp Soldier]

[Talent: Iron Armor, Super Strength, Water Skill]

[Talents can consume 1 points of life essence to evolve, and bloodlines can consume 10 points of life essence to evolve]

[Note: You have contracted four pets. From now on, you can gain time by killing monsters and collecting precious medicines.]

"It's the same life essence that the White Dragon Horse needs to evolve. And in the future, pets can also gain time by killing monsters and collecting precious medicines. How can it be counted on me?!"

Jiang Yue was pleasantly surprised.

In this case, if he contracts many pet beasts, wouldn't time pass by like flowing water?
It’s exciting to think about.

Jiang Yue suppressed his surprise, turned to look at Xia Qi in the water, and asked, "Xia Qi, how strong are you?"

"Reporting to the Lord, Xia Qi has the strength of the third realm."

Shrimp Seven said respectfully: "But Shrimp Seven is the son of a shrimp soldier from the Dragon Palace after all, his bloodline is pretty good, and ordinary four-level water beasts can't beat me."

Upon learning about Xia Qi's strength, Jiang Yue nodded slightly, very satisfied.

This saves him time in training.

Jiang Yue continued to ask: "How long have you been in the Nine Counties? Do you know the general situation of the water monsters in the Nine Counties?"

"My Lord, Xiao Xia has been here for three months, and has gotten a good feel for the situation in the surrounding water."

Xia Qi chuckled and said proudly, "I'm not saying that there's no one in this area who can fight me. Only an old turtle and a white snake can fight with me."

"Oh? Old Turtle, White Snake, is it the fourth realm? Can you, the third realm, beat the fourth realm?"

Jiang Yue asked curiously.

"It is also."

Shrimp Seven nodded and smiled, quite proudly: "My Lord, these guys are all country bumpkins. I was actually trained by General Turtle in the Dragon Palace, and almost became the envied shrimp soldier of the Water Palace. I can dance with shrimp claws with great vigor, and I have the blood of an orthodox shrimp soldier. I don't know how many conch girls who served dishes pursued me back then."

"Stop."

Jiang Yue waved his hand, signaling Xia Qi to shut up.

He also understood. To put it simply, these monsters were indeed unsophisticated and relied on instinct to become stronger. They depended on their physique and supernatural strength. They had no inheritance of killing methods or fighting methods. However, Xia Qi had an inheritance and had learned fighting methods seriously in the Dragon Palace. Naturally, wild water beasts were no match for him.

No wonder these monsters were killed by his single sword strike. After all, they could only resist and there was no way to kill them.

From this point of view, the stronger the demon, the more powerful it is. After all, a powerful demon knows how to kill and may even have magical weapons in his hands.

"Okay, Shrimp Seven."

Jiang Yue said in a deep voice: "What do you mean by taking me to find the treasure in the Dragon Palace?"

Xia Qi replied, "My Lord, the Dragon Palace exploded, and it was washed everywhere. Many people from the Water Palace did not escape and died inside. The one that was washed to Yuqing County is the Dragon Slaying Platform, which is used to kill evil dragons that stir up trouble. There is a dragon-binding rope in the Dragon Slaying Platform that can bind all kinds of beasts. Xiao Xia has been looking for it. If I find it, I will definitely present it to my Lord."

"Dragon Binding Rope?"

Yuan Qinghuan was surprised and said, "Then the Huichunjiang Dragon Goddess is a pure-blooded real dragon? She can even get the Dragon Binding Rope."

Jiang Yue felt deeply ignorant of the major forces in this world. He didn't even know what the Dragon Binding Rope was. He could only guess at it based on the name. As for its origin, he knew nothing at all.

"grown ups."

Yuan Qinghuan was very savvy and explained, "The Dragon Binding Ropes are specially used to capture evil dragons that stir up trouble. They were bestowed upon the four seas by the First Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There are eighty-one of them in total, implying that the dragons should reflect on themselves and punish bad people. However, they have basically not been used until now. Generally, only the Dragon Lords with high status in the dragon clan can get the Dragon Binding Ropes."

"I see."

Jiang Yue's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "You can take your time to look for Xia Qi. There is another task. Control all the water monsters in the nine counties. Gather those who don't practice cannibalism under your command. If there are cannibalism practitioners, kill them all and send their bodies to me after you collect them."

"Yes, my lord!"

Xia Qi cupped his hands and said, "My Lord, do you have any other instructions?"

"If you find any precious medicine in the water, please help me collect it and give it to me later."

"understand!"

Shrimp Seven escaped into the water and said with a flattering smile: "If the master has no other instructions, then Xiao Xia will get busy right away. I will complete the master's request as soon as possible. Xiao Xia will definitely work hard until his death. I will do my utmost for the master and work 100% of the work."

"Go quickly."

Jiang Yue waved his hands, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

This little shrimp is quite talkative, and his clever flattery and pursuit of organization are really hilarious.

The little shrimp dived into the water, twisted its body a few times, and disappeared under the water.

Yuan Tong was already stunned at this time, staring at Jiang Yue in a daze, feeling that everything he had experienced was like a dream. He was just a fisherman, but was rescued by Jiang Yue and promoted to a government official. Now he saw how Jiang Yue subdued the water monster, and with gratitude and awe, he was completely convinced by Jiang Yue.

As for Yuan Qinghuan, she smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Lord Jiang also has the means to control monsters. I guess his divine cultivation is not weak either. He is a practitioner of divine martial arts. Lord Jiang has great ambitions."

"how you said that?"

Jiang Yue raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Isn't it possible for us to practice Shenwu together?"

"can."

Yuan Qinghuan smiled and said, "However, practicing Shenwu together requires a lot of time and energy, and ordinary people really can't do it. Your Excellency's strength is unpredictable and his talent is unparalleled, so it's okay for you to practice Shenwu together."

Jiang Yue smiled and didn't explain, but thought about what Xiaoxia had just said.

"By the way, Master Yuan, do you think those people in the martial arts world can recognize that the ruins of the water palace that rushed here are the Dragon Slaying Platform?"

Jiang Yue suddenly asked.

This sentence caused Yuan Qinghuan's expression to change drastically.

She was intelligent and naturally knew what Jiang Yue meant.

"Sir, we have to hurry. If they find out that this is the Dragon Slaying Platform, someone might find the trace of the Dragon Binding Rope. By then, not to mention the sect of Huichun Mansion, the entire Yunzhou will be in turmoil."

Yuan Qinghuan was a little anxious.

"Ah."

Jiang Yue nodded slightly and said, "First, check the bronze ruins one by one and collect the sailors' bodies. Then we can deal with the martial artists."

At this point, Jiang Yue pointed to the three corpses of Fire Deity monks in the boat and his own mountain patrol token.

They used the common people to lure out demons, and this was enough for him to do his best.

"That's great, let's hurry up."

Yuan Qinghuan threw out a decree, which attached itself to the small boat.

The water waves surged and the boat sped away.

Jiang Yue's reputation has spread. Any martial artist he meets dares not stay for long. They turn around and run away after seeing Jiang Yue.

Along the way, they passed by thirty-three fragments of the Water Palace, but more than half of them had been opened, and a few of them had nothing inside. In the end, all Jiang Yue got were ten corpses of fifth-level shrimp soldiers.

It was precisely because of his domineering actions that people in the martial arts world began to become very dissatisfied with Jiang Yue, but they could not defeat him and could only be ruthless in secret.

After Jiang Yue left, these people from the martial arts world did not leave the Nine Counties, but continued to wait here.

Because not all of the ruins of the Water Palace are exposed above the water, there are still many underwater, and they cannot miss this wave of windfall.

Jiang Yue didn't care about all this. He had already brought Yuan Tong back to the yamen lobby.

The fifteen small flags also came back and were waiting quietly in the hall. The officials in the Wentang were also waiting for Jiang Yue to speak.

Jiang Yue sat on the main seat with his horse and golden sword, rubbing his brows. There were too many things to do, and he had to do them one by one.

Only now did he realize the hardships of being an official. There were simply too many things to do. If he did not personally discover that his subordinates were bullying the common people, he basically had no time to take care of them.

No wonder Sun Yayi has been so arrogant for so many years.

"How is the porridge distribution for disaster victims going?"

Jiang Yue sorted out the matters at hand and divided them into the three monsters of cow, dog and pig, the monsters in the water, the martial artists in the rivers and lakes, the ruins of the water palace, and the common people, and dealt with them one by one.

Hearing Jiang Yue's question, Lu Yang, who was promoted to the position of Chief of the Political Department, stepped forward and said, "Sir, after you used the demon's corpse to make broth, Zhang and Cui were very conscious and gave out large amounts of porridge and accepted the victims. They were afraid that you would cause trouble for them."

"Yes, that's right. How many victims are there?"

Jiang Yue continued to ask.

"Sir, there are more than 2,000 disaster victims in the city, and there are more outside the city. It is estimated that the number of disaster victims will reach more than 10,000 in the end. This is an extremely large number."

Lu Yang organized his speech and said in a deep voice: "It is easy to provide porridge, but it is difficult to stop providing porridge. If we cannot eliminate the flood and restore our homes as soon as possible, I am afraid that these disaster victims will turn from gratitude to resentment."

"Well, I know about this, it will be soon."

Jiang Yue nodded slightly, looked towards the martial arts hall, and continued to ask: "Have any demons appeared around Yuqing County today?"

"Sir, the bull demon appeared as if to seek revenge, brutally killing seven members of a family, but was repelled by our combined efforts."

A small flag said respectfully.

"So brave."

Jiang Yue narrowed his eyes.

It is really difficult to expel the martial artists from the martial arts world as quickly as possible and eliminate the demons at the same time. This further strengthened Jiang Yue's idea of ​​forming a team.

"Little Flags."

Jiang Yue ordered: "Go find the warriors from all factions in the nine counties and send them a message. Invite them to come to Yuqing County at noon tomorrow to discuss the search for treasures in the water. Do it as soon as possible."

"I accept my order from my humble position!"

The small flags knelt on one knee and obeyed Jiang Yue's orders.

"Go."

Jiang Yue waved his hand.

The fifteen small flags stood up in unison, turned around and ran out of the yamen hall, mounted their horses and went to deliver the message.

"Master of the Water Department."

"exist!"

"Let's start discussing flood control methods with the Water Department. Once we finish tomorrow, we will probably be able to start dispersing the flood in a few days."

Jiang Yue ordered.

"I humble my position and take orders."

Yuan Qinghuan nodded without objection.

As for the other water officials, they all opened their eyes wide with a look of disbelief on their faces.

What do you mean?
In a few days, can we start to disperse the flood?

There are so many monsters and martial artists in the water. Does Lord Jiang have the confidence to solve them all within these few days?
The official from the Water Department looked at Yuan Qinghuan and saw that he was not surprised at all and was extremely convinced of Jiang Yue.

"My lord is mighty!"

The water department official couldn't help but show respect.

"It doesn't matter. We are all doing things for the people."

Jiang Yue waved his hand and said, "Please spare some effort to dredge the floodwaters. This will benefit the people and be a great meritorious deed."

"I will work hard to study the strategy of flood control!"

The water department officials responded in unison.

"As for Nongsi."

Jiang Yue continued, "Many fertile fields were submerged by the flood. The Agriculture Department and the Water Department coordinated with each other and watched the time. After the flood was dissipated, they restored the fertile fields as soon as possible, and then coordinated with the Political Department to conduct a population survey and redistribute the land to each household."

"Yes!"

The officials of the Department of Agriculture responded in unison.

Yuan Qinghuan's beautiful eyes moved slightly. She felt that Jiang Yue's ideas were logical and his plans were smooth. She couldn't help but admire him in her heart.

The killing he did the day before to establish his authority has now clearly shown its effect.

"It's all gone."

Jiang Yue waved his hand and dragged his slightly tired body back to the Sky Patrol's office.

Tonight, he has to digest ten shrimp soldier corpses, spending more than a thousand years to improve his Nine Revolutions Furnace Sutra!
